Funded Activity Summary
A 4D habitat-modelling facility to support marine ecological research. The loss and modification of natural habitats is a major threat to biodiversity that requires evidence-based management supported by excellent science. To this end, this project will create a facility for 4D habitat modelling (i.e. assessing changes in 3D habitat structure over time) that will underpin research innovation in marine systems. The new aerial and subtidal image acquisition technology will also be used to accurately measure changes in marine plants and algae over time, improve habitats provided by coastal protection infrastructure and support ecological field research. The new equipment will allow scaling up of field experiments and monitoring to enhance their impact and capacity to support effective management.Funded Activity Details
